EMT bushing

I think somebody mentioned a bushing insert that is slipped into the end of a piece of EMT to protect the NM when sleeving for protection. I haven't seen them at the big box stores. If I was imagining it, what would you use?

I have seen the blue ones that fit over the EMT and red ones that slip inside. I am not certain if the red ones are the correct type for EMT, but they do work. I found the blue ones at Lowes and the red ones at HD.

Thanks to all. I'll look harder next time. I was at Lowes today and asked and the guy said "I've been doing this for 17 years and never heard of such a thing" followed by "You know you're not supposed to put romex in conduit". Yeah.

Interesting link on the subject of romex in conduit. Short version, yes it's allowed, except in wet conditions. Romex can't be used in wet conditions even in conduit.
